Tor VPN Beta

Tor VPN Beta is a vpn & proxy application developed by F-Droid Open Source, packaged as a single Android APK of version 1.9 weighing in at 75.13 MB. The package targets Android 4.1+ and above. Below you'll find the publisher's own description, a quick spec sheet, and a short buyer-beware checklist so you know exactly what you're installing before tapping download.

1. Only download through the button on this page — never from third-party mirrors or shortened links, which are the most common way malware spreads.
2. File size is a light 75.13 MB, so it installs quickly even on modest connections.
3. This build is signed by "F-Droid Open Source" — always verify the developer name matches what's listed on the app's official store page before installing an update.
4. After install, Android may prompt you to allow "Install from unknown sources" — approve only this one install, then revoke the permission in Settings > Apps > Special access.
5. We link directly to the APK file or the publisher's repository; we do not modify the binary. Always run a virus scan after any sideloaded install.

Tor VPN Beta puts control back in your hands when others try to cut you off from the world. This early-access release is for users who want to help shape the future of mobile privacy and can do safely.

• Network-level privacy: Tor VPN hides your real IP address and location from the apps and services you use–and from anyone watching your connection.


• Per-app routing: You choose which apps are routed through Tor. Each app gets its own Tor circuit and exit IP, preventing network observers from connecting all of your online activity.


• App-level censorship resistance: When access is blocked, Tor VPN may help reconnect your essential apps to the internet. (Beta limitation: This early access version has limited anti-censorship capabilities and users may face connection issues)


• Built on Arti: Tor VPN uses Tor's next-generation Rust implementation. That means safer memory handling, modern code architecture, and a stronger security foundation than legacy C-Tor tools.

Who is Tor VPN Beta for?


Tor VPN Beta is an early-access release and not suitable for high-risk users or sensitive use-cases during the beta period.




Tor VPN Beta is for early adopters who want to help shape mobile privacy and can do so safely. Users should expect bugs and report issues. If you're ready to test, bring the app to its limits, and share feedback, we'd love your help tipping the scales toward a freer internet.


Important limitations (PLEASE READ)


Tor VPN is not a silver bullet either: Some Android platform data can still identify your device; no VPN can fully prevent this. If you face extreme surveillance risks, we recommend against using Tor VPN Beta.




Not all of Tor's anti-censorship features are implemented yet. Users in heavily censored regions might not be able to use Tor VPN Beta to connect to Tor or the internet.

Is Tor VPN Beta free to download?
Yes. The APK file linked from this page is free. The developer may offer in-app purchases once installed, but obtaining the installer itself costs nothing.

What Android version does Tor VPN Beta require?
Android 4.1+ or newer. Installing on older devices may cause crashes or refuse to install.

Is Tor VPN Beta safe to install?
We link to the exact APK published by F-Droid Open Source. We do not modify the file. Still, as with any sideloaded app, scan it with a reputable antivirus before opening it, and only grant permissions the app genuinely needs.

How do I update Tor VPN Beta?
Install the newer version on top of the old one — Android will keep your data. If the signature differs, uninstall first (you may lose local progress).

Why is the app not installing?
Common causes: not enough storage, an older Android version than 4.1+, or a conflicting build already installed. Free up space, check your OS version, and uninstall any previous copy before retrying.

1. Tap the Download APK button above and save the file to your device.
2. Open your device Settings → Security (or Apps → Special access → Install unknown apps) and allow your file manager or browser to install unknown apps for this one file only.
3. Open the downloaded org.torproject.vpn.apk file from your Downloads folder.
4. Tap Install and wait for Android to finish.
5. Open «Tor VPN Beta» by F-Droid Open Source and grant only the permissions it actually needs.
6. Revoke the "unknown sources" permission once you are done installing.
